125 cm puts this between the small uprights and the full-height ones, which is a useful place to be.

Kawai
In the price, not added at the end.
Read both. The second list is the one that saves people money.
Fuller in the bass than a starter piano without turning into a big instrument. That balance is the whole reason this size exists.
Set against the Kawai No. K35, the most commonly sold used Kawai here, it is 7 cm shorter and 20 kg lighter. Middling for weight in a range that spans 160 kg to 270 kg.
Kawai voicing runs warmer than Yamaha at the same size, particularly up top. People who practise for hours tend to prefer it. There is no right answer here. Both are on the floor, so try them back to back.
200 kg is normal for this size. Access matters more than the number does. At 59 cm front to back it is one of the shallower cases in the range, which is worth knowing if the hallway it has to pass through is narrow.
Kawai built several at 125 cm tall: the No. K20, K-5, BL-31, BS-2A and 11 others. They differ in weight and case rather than in size. If the KS2 is not on the floor when you ask, the table below is where we would send you next.
| Model | Height | Weight | Width |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kawai No. KS2 This model | 125 cm | 200 kg | 150 cm |
| Kawai No. K20 | 125 cm | 200 kg | 152 cm |
| Kawai BL-31 | 125 cm | 200 kg | 152 cm |
| Kawai KU-10 | 125 cm | 192 kg | 150 cm |
Every Kawai we sell has been through a full restoration in Japan and a second rebuild in Selangor. The second one matters most, because by then the piano has been through a humidity change we can actually see the effects of.
The piano heater that comes with it is not a gimmick. In a damp house, run on a timer, it is the cheapest maintenance you will do.
Renting first is the low-risk way in. Nothing you pay is wasted, because it counts toward buying the piano later.
The first generation of Kawai uprights, and the line the later series grew out of. Many left the factory with two pedals and have had a third fitted during restoration.
125 cm tall, 150 cm wide, 59 cm deep, and about 200 kg. Height sets the tone, weight sets what delivery day looks like.
You need about 1.6 m of wall and roughly 1.0 m². 200 kg is normal for this size. Access matters more than the number does. Give us the measurements and the access and we will be straight about whether it works.
Every Kawai we sell has been through a full restoration in Japan and a second rebuild in Selangor. The second one matters most, because by then the piano has been through a humidity change we can actually see the effects of. There is a five-year warranty behind it, and we are the ones who service it.
Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a KS2 specifically. Ask what is free now. Nothing paid in rent is wasted if you decide to keep the piano.
Ask, because it changes week to week. If we do not have one, we will say so and tell you what is close on size and weight.
Twice a year. The piano heater that comes with it is not a gimmick. In a damp house, run on a timer, it is the cheapest maintenance you will do. We include the two tunings it needs after moving.
One message and we will tell you what we have, what it costs, and whether the KS2 is really the right size for your room.
